If you check the World Junior Championship you can't see any wrestler from Mongolia ! I heard about it but I wasn't sure , apparently UWW banned Mongolian wrestling federation until further announcement ! what those coaches did was stupid and they deserve heavy punishment but banning an entire nation for that is unbelievable .

Looks like we're back to collective punishment in sports.

If Isinbayeva could be banned... :dunno:

Some Indian news agencies are claiming that Toghrul Asgarov has also failed dope test from London. I am yet to find any non-Indian source for this and hence, it could be all rubbish, but it does raise a challenging hypothetical. Asgarov won Gold in London while Kudukhov won Silver. Yogeshwar and Scott won Bronze. Now, there are reports about both Gold and Silver medallists failing dope test, so in that case what would be the medal re-distribution? When one of the finalists fails dope test, it is simple. Bronze medallist who lost to doped wrestler gets upgraded to Silver and the wrestler who lost to upgraded wrestler in Bronze medal match gets Bronze. But, what happens when both finalist are disqualified? 2 silvers and 2 bronze? Or is there some tiebreak which can be applied. 

 

Once again, at present this is just a hypothetical as I am yet to find anything credible on Asgarov failing dope test. (He won Silver in Rio as well).

first, people should remember this is not a sure thing if IOC award those medals to the next athlete.

 

but if they want to do that, I think they will either give shared gold or shared silver. or maybe the best idea is leaving Dutt and Scott with bronze medals they already won ! complicated situation, this is not in their rules to do what if both finalists fail the test.

    • MId-1962.  Almost all the Jews were driven out in a few days, even though they had been living there since Classical, pre-Muslim times.   Perhaps our friend could give us details of of any current Algerian plans to welcome them back, restore their property, guarantee their safety etc etc?    
    • In what year did Algeria free itself from French influence? 1960, exactly?
    • Or better, perhaps he'd like to tell us what happened to the 140,000 Jews who were living in Algeria in 1960, as against the 200 who live there now? 
    • There are still many people of Jewish origin in Central and Eastern Europe who have nothing to do with the state of Israel. What ties does Zelensky have to the state of Israel? Apart from he waś there as president of Ukraine and speaking in the Knesset? Nothing. In the power circles in Moscow there were/are many people of Jewish origin and what about that? A large part of the power apparatus of the USSR was based on Jews, especially in the years shortly after WWII.   Instead of constantly writing about Jews, would be better to tell me which country Algeria has better diplomatic relations with: Tunisia or Egypt?  
    • Handy guide for the perplexed.  
    • I`m a bit disappointed with the starts of the Italian team. I was counting on progress from last year. And here it looks like Bagnis is still very uneven. In Cortina there will be 3 competitions with medals to win and it would be a shame not to use our track to win 1-2 medals. The same goes for luge.
    • On the other hand Errani's serve doesn't make Paolini's task any easier... But Paolini is in a such good shape here, though, that I hope she wins her first title in the old Fed Cup. For Errani, it will be 4: 2009, 2010, 2013. So far, Roberta Vinci has 4 titles with Italy.
    • Skeleton WC Pyeongchang, South Korea    Women Gold-  Freya Tarbit (1:44.68) Silver-  Hannah Neise (1:45.64) Bronze-  Janine Flock (1:45.70)   Full Results   Men Gold-  Christopher Grotheer (1:42.81) Silver-  Marcus Wyatt (1:42.87) Bronze-  Matt Weston (1:43.31)   Full Results
    • Poor Iga, she was essentially playing alone with all of the mistakes that Kawa was making. 
    • This time losing in the final will be a big disappointment for me... Especially since Poland and the Czech Republic are out. Everything depends on Paolini, who can/must win the singles and doubles in the final. The big problem is with Errani's tragic serve... If she served at Paolini's level Italy's chances would be much greater.
